RoboMate, has thus obtained awards and recognitions from prestigious realities including:

The activity is entirely focused on the man-machine relationship in which the robot is not seen as a foreign entity but enters more and more into everyone’s daily life until it can be considered an innovative support in the treatment of autism, and for the support of Older people. The TREAT Project (Therapeutic Robot in Experimental Autism Therapy), also awarded by the startup incubator “Working Capital Telecom” in 2013, was born with this aim: it is an initiative aimed at creating a new experimental therapy for the treatment autism. It is based on the platform we invented “RoboMate ©” and on the programming of robots using some software made exclusively by our team, with the support of universities, research centers, teachers, doctors, and pedagogists.
The research team immediately realized how useful humanoid robots can be in the study of treatments concerning behavioral disorders. Thus began a path of study of specific cases and development of further applications for the various social robots, through “RoboMate”.
